Hi, this is the same Bug as #485659. It is probably not really a bug but poorly documented. 1. If you use NFS Root or required NFS shares you are supposed to use the following anyway: /etc/default/rcS ASYNCMOUNTNFS=no This solves also the mount at boot time of more unimportant shares 2. For unimportant/not system required NFS shares you should use the option "bg" in the fstab Regards
